In the newest episode of the EGN Podcast, host Efe von Thenen sits down with Dorit Posdorf, Chief Marketing Officer at Doc Morris, to explore the exciting and transformative changes happening in Germany’s healthcare landscape. Doc Morris, widely recognized as a leader in online pharmacy services, is spearheading the adoption of digital healthcare innovations, particularly the e-prescription system, which is reshaping the way patients access medication and healthcare services.
During the interview, our guest shared her compelling journey from her strategic consulting days to leading Doc Morris through one of its most transformative phases. As she explained, the introduction of e-prescriptions in Germany marks a monumental shift from cumbersome, paper-based processes to a seamless, digital-first approach.
